Title: Battery powered surgical instrument
Inventor: GUIDO PEDROS
IPC: A61B17/068
Filed: 2006-06-02
Granted: 2011-12-15
Abstract: A surgical stapler has a handle assembly including a stationary handle and a trigger. The stapler also has a drive assembly with a body having a working end and a cam member supported on the working end. The cam member is positioned to translate relative to the anvil to maintain the anvil in the closed position during firing of the stapler. The trigger is operatively connected to a power cell. The power cell is operably connected to a motor of the drive assembly. The manipulation of the trigger actuates the power cell such that the power cell powers the drive assembly to effect translation of the cam member relative to the anvil. The stapler also has a channel for supporting the staple cartridge and the motor of the drive assembly controls the actuation sled supported within the cartridge. The actuation sled urges the plurality of staples from the cartridge when the anvil is in the closed position and in cooperative alignment with the staple cartridge.

Title: Generation of antimicrobial surfaces using dendrimer biocides
Inventor: LAMBA-KOHLI NINA
IPC: A01N25/00
Filed: 2007-02-16
Granted: 2013-10-03
Abstract: A silane-QAC-dendritic polymer biocide surface treatment for bath, screen or spray- on application. The silane-QAC-dendritic polymer biocide generally comprises a highly branched polymer modified to include quaternary ammonium compounds for biocidal activity, and further modified to include a functionalized silane moiety to covalently attach the polymer biocide to a variety of substrates through hydrolysis. The highly branched polymer may be any one from among a group consisting of dendrimers, dendritic polymers, and hyperbranched polymers, and the functionalized silane moiety may be Siloxane (- Si(OR)3). The resulting surface treatment combines the demonstrated high potency of quaternary ammonium compound dendrimers and hyperbranched polymers with the well- 5 established coupling chemistry of silane functional groups. Upon hydrolysis, the silane groups will covalently attach to functional groups such as amines and hydroxyl groups. This provides an effective biocidal surface treatment for any substrates having exposed hydroxyl, amine or other suitable reactive groups.
